From discord haco#9376:

Someone has the same issue? 
VU is not launching anymore (game window opens with black screen for some seconds and exits to desktop without crash or log dump)
Last & currently working version is18896, everything afterwards (tested 19002, 004 and 006) does not work.
Using Windows 10 + Origin
Tried everything: Reinstall, Repair Game Files, launch vanilla game again, removed VeniceUnleashed folder in AppData, tried the zip version, tried zip version in bf3 folder, restarted pc, disabled AV and Firewall, try launching while Origin is open, killed all processes from origin/vu/ea core server

Other users are also having the same issue

This is probably related to unicode paths. Current workaround is this: Go to “Control Panel” --> “Clock and Region” --> “Region” --> “Administrative” Tab --> “Change system regional configuration…” --> and check the “Beta version: Use UTF-8 for language compatibility” checkbox.

Working on improving this but testing it is a bit tricky cause visual studio really doesn't like Unicode.

@OrfeasZ: I have changed the settings for unicode paths... but the problem still exists...
